Preeclampsia (PE) was shown to affect the placental content and the transfer of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) to the fetus. Plasmalogens, a type of phospholipids with a vinyl-ether link at the sn-1 position, play an antioxidant role and are specifically

The precise role played by plasmalogen phospholipids (PL) of lipoproteins and cell membranes is not well understood. However, they might act as endogenous antioxidants in defending cell membranes and lipoproteins from reactive oxygen species. A decline of plasmalogen concentrations has

Plasmalogens represent a unique type of phospholipids characterized by the presence of a vinyl-ether bond at the sn-1 position of the glycerol backbone. Peroxisomes are essential in their biosynthesis. Their suggested functions include protection against oxidative stress, participation in signal
